Cherry Crisp

Posted by Emily on 30 Jul 2008 | Tagged as: dessert


I wanted to try a fruit crisp that did not use as much sugar and butter and cornstarch as many recipes I have found call for. This was an experiment, but I think it turned out well. The cherries are naturally sweet on their own and the oil and honey and oats along with some almonds make a nice crispy crust. The hardest part of making this was pitting the pound of cherries, but it was well worth it!
What to do:
-Pit and halve a pound of fresh cherries
-combine in a bowl: 3/4 cup rolled oats, 1 tbsp flour, 2 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp vegetable oil, salt, 1/2 cup chopped almonds, cinnemon, and nutmeg
-place pitted cherries in the bottom of a deep pie dish, spoon the oat mixture over the top and bake for about 40 minutes. Cool and serve with vanilla ice cream.
